The AI infrastructure narrative remains strong, with Meta committing $145B in capital expenditure and Oracle confirming its 2.4 GW Project Jupiter fuel cell deal, which has already boosted Bloom Energy's market cap by over $4B.

This divergence suggests a 'winner-take-most' dynamic in the AI sector, favoring incumbents with deep pockets and government ties.
